Thank you to the Midvale Senior Center for hosting our open rehearsal.

What to expect and how to prepare:

• This is NOT a performance – it’s a rehearsal. Expect stops and starts at any point during the pieces as the musicians work through the music.
• Please refrain from applause, as this is an informal rehearsal setting.
• We kindly ask that you do not ask questions until the end or during breaks in the rehearsal, so as not to disrupt the flow of work.
• Quiet snacks and water are acceptable, but please be considerate of others.
• Absolute silence is not required, but we ask that you remain respectful and avoid causing any disruptions to the quartet’s process.
• There may be a complete playthrough of entire movements, but this is not guaranteed.
• Throughout the rehearsal, the musicians will likely discuss aspects such as timing, phrasing, dynamics, cues, and general showmanship. These discussions are part of the creative process, and your understanding is appreciated.
